Hannah4181 260 Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 A popular place for fatty tissue lumps . . . . but in a young dog i'd not expect that. Is there any soreness or opening, that may suggest something has broken the skin an caused an abcess (sp)! ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Possibly a sting, but a weird place to get stung! I'd monitor it and if it hasn't gone down in a week or so, vet for a check up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
